$20 million per mile of border wall

9826 miles is the perimeter. It costs only ~$200 billion to build a wall on all the sides.

The government takes like 4+ trillion dollars a year in tax money from Americans. Many of our problems can be fixed by money. But we just choose not to

20 million per mile.

A steel beam is max $20 per linear foot. 5280 feet in a mile means 105k per mile for a beam. Because you want the wall twelve feet high that's x12, which is 1.25 million dollars. It's about $3000 per mile of razor wire, so again let's say ten piles of razor wire at 30k. So MAX you're at 1.5 million per mile with steel beams stacked and razor wire on top. Add in reinforcing and construction costs and let's double that to 3 million per mile.

How the hell do they come up with 20 million?

I want an efficient wall. Not some wall some bowling ball fat mexicants can climb with a ladder. I'm even in favor of a double wall. After they get over one, the second has a mine-field leading to the second wall, at this point. Once motion is detected after the first wall, border patrol is immediately notified. I'd prefer a drone or sorts with some type of taser ability. Maybe one that can even pick up the Mexicant and throw them back over the wall. I don't think we should be nice about this at all.

I’m down with the wall, but the wall isn’t what’s most important.

We need to start detaining and deporting these illegals and stop providing them money and services for coming here illegally.

Right now we are sending the message by our actions that illegals are welcome here and we’ll take care of them. We need to start sending the opposite message, if you come you’ll be turned away, detained, deported, and arrested.

The mental fear that it’s not worth coming to America is stronger than the wall itself.

Right now we have neither

Wow, you know absolutely nothing about material cost. Not even going to go into numbers, but you should just delete that post, its embarrassing.

You're not paying for labor or logistics. Is that beam $20 per foot including delivery?
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

Right now we have neither
Step 1, $25k fine per illegal hired, $75k for second offense, all assets seized and business shutdown for third offense.

Step 2, immediate deportation for any illegal that's arrested or detained for any reason unless they've committed violent crimes, if they have, death penalty.

Step 3, no more asylum seekers let in.
